That last Christmas gift you ordered never seems to arrive on your doorstep quick enough.
You hear the delivery truck rumble around the corner, but it just blows on past, several times a day.
Jiminy Christmas, you may think, do I have to wait forever?
No, you don't.

If you buy something online, through the mail or over the phone, the merchant must abide by the shipping terms it quoted you. If it didn't specify a delivery window, in most cases, your order must be on its way to you within 30 days, under the federal Mail or Telephone Order Merchandise Rule.
If the shipper can't meet those terms — maybe your item is on back order — it's supposed to alert you and offer you a chance to cancel for a full refund.
Despite its name, the rule has been interpreted to also cover purchases made online. Remember, the first Internet connections were over phone lines.
The Federal Trade Commission imposed the rule in 1975 in response to complaints about mail order purchases. It added phone purchases in 1993 and is in the process of clarifying the rule to note it covers online orders.
The rule has general support from trade associations representing businesses subject to the terms.
In comments submitted to the FTC's plan to clarify the rule, the Direct Marketing Association and National Retail Federation said their members support it because it promotes faith in long-distance sales and promotes healthy competition for consumer dollars.
"Our members understand that complying with the rule is not only the law, but its requirements are sound business practices, which are critical to consumer trust and the continued growth and expansion of multichannel commerce," the Direct Marketing Association wrote.
I don't buy a whole lot of stuff online or over the phone except around the holidays. But when I have, I don't recall waiting anywhere near 30 days for delivery. Many manufacturers and stores do a speedy job of getting things to our doors much quicker than that.
The FTC hasn't taken action against any violators recently, which is a good sign, though it says that doesn't mean there isn't a need for such a rule anymore.
In proposing to amend the law to clarify it covers online purchases, the FTC said last year in a Federal Register notice "it has reason to believe that unfair or deceptive acts or practices involving Internet sales are prevalent, notwithstanding the number of reliable Internet retailers."
The Internet Crime Complaint Center said it received about 22,400 complaints about non-delivery of merchandise last year.
In June, the Pennsylvania attorney general's office reached an agreement to recoup $200,000 for customers of BlueHippo Funding, a Maryland company accused of selling merchandise it did not always deliver.
In the settlement, the owner of the company did not admit any wrongdoing.
"BlueHippo allegedly used a national campaign of television and radio ads, telemarketing calls and Internet websites to lure consumers into purchasing computers, flat-screen TVs and other electronic equipment," Attorney General Linda Kelly said in a statement. "In reality, the complaints we received indicated BlueHippo was little more than a sham enterprise that delivered few, if any, products to consumers."
Customers had until late September to submit requests for refunds. The attorney general's office is reviewing those claims and will be distributing payments soon, spokesman Nils Frederiksen said.
If a merchant encounters a delay in sending your items, it's not allowed to just shrug it off. If it can't ship within 30 days or within the terms it quoted you, it must contact you with a revised shipping date. If you don't like that date, you can request a refund.
If you ignore the notice and the projected delay is 30 days or less, you're presumed to have agreed to the delay. If you ignore the notice and the delay is more than 30 days, the merchant must cancel your order by the 30th day of the delay period and refund your money.
Companies also can send additional notices advising of further delays, which are handled the same way.
If the merchant says it can't tell you how long a delay may be and you agree to keep your order active, you have the right to cancel whenever you think you've waited long enough.
As with most rules, there are exceptions, including orders of seeds and plants and subscription services such as magazines.
If you buy something and it doesn't arrive, call the company. If that doesn't work and you paid with a credit card, you can seek a refund through your card issuer by disputing the charge.
You also can seek help from the Federal Trade Commission (877-FTC-HELP or http://www.ftc.gov) or the Pennsylvania attorney general's office (800-441-2555 or http://www.attorneygeneral.gov).

About Zac Brown Band
The Zac Brown Band was formed in 2002. After touring extensively, they released their first album, Far from Einstyne, in 2004. Their sophomore effort, Home Grown, came out in December of 2005. Both albums were released independently on Zac Brown's own label, Home Grown (it's now called Southern Ground). The band signed with a major label, Atlantic, for their third studio album, The Foundation. Released in 2008, The Foundation peaked at number two on the Billboard country charts and was nominated for the Grammy Award for Best Country Album. The album produced five hit singles, "Chicken Fried," "Whatever It Is," "Toes," "Highway 20 Ride," and "Free." The single "Whatever It Is" peaked at number two on the Country singles charts while the other four went all the way to number one.

Dear All,
I'm thinking in buying a iPhone, and seems like the new version of Baseband does not permit do us unlock.
My question is, If I remove the Basebend Flash and errase the Baseband firmware, can I reprogram the firmware via ienew?
Or let's put this other way, what do I have to errase/reprogram in the flash so I can use the available TP/software to unlock the new versions of iPhone!
I don't want to hear answers like, oh this is very hard to do and bla bla, I have equipment for doing all this in 20 minutes. UV rework station, BGA adapters for reprogramming Flash, etc etc...

Hi there,
I want to Billboard some trees, and obviously trees arnt rectangle, so
how do I make the other ares of the trees transparent? Do I have to use
alpha blending and the alpha channel, if so, where can i d/l some free
software to edit alpha channels (windows 98)? With
D3DXCreateTextureFromFileExA is it possible to use the color key
specified in that function?
Any ideas? the billboarding tutorial for DX8 is really bad and relies on loads of alpha blending and testing + tga files.

INTB; there's a great thread on setting down what you need as the BS at http://www.survivinginfidelity.com/forums.asp?tid=446349
The basic rule being whatever you as the BS feel safe with. WSs who are remorseful inherently KNOW they have a hundred loops to jump through and then some.
I don't know if outside links are allowed, but this is also very helpful in defining action post DDay;
As the WS, I can surely say that the urge to minimise and rugsweep is IMMENSE. However, an educated WS (through forums and books or one through a helpful MC/IC) will recognise the damage that this can have over the long run. It took me a few months post DDay, but I had to ENSURE the safety of my BS to have her and myself committed to R.
I'd also grasp at any opportunity when I felt like I was 'getting off lightly' on some aspect such as transparency, or accountability and I'd suggest that you clearly communicate to your WW when you feel they're taking the easy way out.
Boundaries also help a lot. The WS has sometimes perceived boundaries which a BS may be uncomfortable with. I'd say that you help your WW define and be accountable to you (or an IC/MC) for new boundaries you both get to set based on her failures which led to the A.
Please, this early on, let your WS know when you're left feeling like they're taking days off. You can't make them work, but you can point out when you feel they are faltering. Again, reading/educating yourself and hopefully your WS on the work that's required (read through the FAQs and point your WW here) will best communicate to her what is the base requirement for R. Mileage varies, but at least you're setting the right expectations.
I'd say that a WSs complacency might also arise from the emotional roller coaster and a feeling of hopelessness. There are plenty of articles here which can give hope to the WS that R after the A is achievable and a better M can be built atop that.
Best of luck and I pray you find yourself in a better place soon.
Thanks stilllovinghim.
I don't know about emotionally unavailable. More likely scared. I did the same thing. I didn't want to "make waves" and ruin my H's day. All excuses but not because I was "emotionally unavailable" just scared. Most of us WS are non confrontational/passive aggressive (sorry about the labels) so for some of us bringing up the A is like being terrified of heights and offering to jump out of an airplane multiple times.
This is it! This is exactly what WW has stated in MC and to me alone. She over thinks what she wants to do and say, and then doesn't do it at all some days because she's scared of how I'll react. WW has always had what I call "Ostrich Syndrome". She tends to bury her head in the sand when any little bump in the road arises. It's just part of her FOO issues. Also God forbid she does try something and it doesn't work perfectly. When that happens she turns into a crying lump of self pity. At this stage I can't, and won't, be party to that pity. In fact, it only gets me angrier when I start to think she's trying to make the whole situation about her emotions and needs. BTW, WW is in IC and is trying to get a handle on her FOO stuff & more.
Our MC suggested that I tell WW in written form what I need from her to heal. She told me that I can't just assume she will know because she's not me. I agreed to do this and gave WW a list of what I needed from her. It worked great for about 3 days and then it was like she had never read it. I've just recently asked her to reread the list and to try and keep going back to it so she wouldn't lose focus anymore. I don't know, I'm just tired of feeling like I always have to ask. IMO, if she's serious about wanting R, and our M, she should be doing this shit without constant prompting from me.
Would you be opposed to your W posting on SI so she can ask questions and receive advice?
WW has been lurking on SI for months now. However, she refuses for some reason to join. She runs a cooking forum site that I built for her, so it isn't that she's unfamiliar with how it works. It's another thing that pisses me off to no end because I feel like she won't go the extra mile and do the heavy lifting needed to help me heal.
[This message edited by ImNotToBlame1241 at 2:36 AM, March 25th (Sunday)]
Thanks for all the info and the links. I'll definitely be taking time to read what's offered there.
At this stage I can't, and won't, be party to that pity. In fact, it only gets me angrier when I start to think she's trying to make the whole situation about her emotions and needs. BTW, WW is in IC and is trying to get a handle on her FOO stuff & more.
Ok, first things, it's really good to know you guys are in MC and she's working in IC to get a handle on things. Secondly, she's resorting to a familiar coping mechanism. Avoidance of the issue; or like you said Ostrich Syndrome and then when that gets old or she gets called out on it by you, she refers to her other comfortable reliable ol' standby of trying to get the attention on her, feel sorry for her and this way you'll either drop the subject and go to her and pitty her, or you'll completely let go of the subject forever and ever and go to her and pitty her. It's worked before. Don't fix it if it ain't broke, right?
I did this I was a master at this and I'm not only referring to the A. Mine was definitely FOO. One of many examples:
I used to fake having to go to the bathroom (#2 cause it takes longer)to try and either get my way out of a whippin' or to bide some time before I got the whippin'. You wouldn't hit someone with a belt or a switch or with your hands if they were trying to drop a deuce, would you? Didn't think so. See how that works though? Clever little thing, though wasn't I?
Once you're (the WS) on the outside looking in, you'll (the WS) realize how selfish, deceitful and immature this type of behavior is. You're (the WS)also taking away from your spouses hurt. She needs to see this within herself. Acknowledge it and fix it.
It worked great for about 3 days and then it was like she had never read it. I've just recently asked her to reread the list and to try and keep going back to it so she wouldn't lose focus anymore.
*sigh* That sounds a lot like me. How long ago was your d-day? I didn't really start getting my shit together till over a year later when my H found SI. He was at the end of his rope and I had no clue! I avoided the subject of the A like you would a leper and I did basically zero to help him. He'd ask something of me, I'd half-ass it or would do it for a while then stop. My head started to finally wiggle free from my ass when my H had me read "What Every WS Needs To Know" and "How Much Does My BS Hurt?"
It still took a while but I did start doing more and caring more after reading those posts and especially after joining SI.
She doesn't need to feel afraid. The greeting says, "Come in, it's safe here." There are WS's and BS's on the board who will be more than willing to help her out. The one thing I wouldn't suggest her to do would be to either:
1)Cop an attitude and be rude and mean to everyone. That will not be tolerated.
2) Still be in the A.
Other than that, she can say hi everyone, I'm new, I have questions and she can post with the Stop Sign. We don't come out swinging 2x4's and when we do, it's not on first posts. Remember, the 2x4's are used to build, metaphorically and irl.
She needs to get scared and realize how really REAL this is. You don't HAVE to R. You could still choose to S or D. She needs to realize this.
She must do the work, be transparent, give you a timeline (if she hasn't already) tell you the truth and remain truthful, be willing to work her ass off and stumble and get back up again and again and again. Until she really gets it, I'm afraid she'll remain doing what's comfortable. Sometimes this takes time especially for foggy WS's that's why I asked you when your D-day was.
I hope that helped! Good luck!

How long ago was your d-day?
I have to be careful here. While I'd really like for WW to join here and get some help, I'm also conflicted because this is my ONLY safe haven to be myself, rant, vent, scream, holler etc... Recently I discovered WW lurking on SI and found out she was reading my posts. I had a ton of personally identifying shit in my profile and sig so I knew that she could easily put 2&2 together and know it was me. I knee jerked and DS was kind enough to allow me to re-register with a new user name.
Anyway, I know she doesn't visit this section of the forum so I can tell you that my first d-day was 11/18/11. There was a ton of TT and then 3 more after that. The final one was 12/4/11. That's what the numbers mean after my handle LOL. Without going into the whole sorted shitty story, WW's A was almost 4 years. It started out as a PA on a forum site and developed into a full blown PA with-in 3 months. There were 7 meetings over the span, 4 that I can't let go of,. Two while we were on vacation in FLA with relatives and two while I was recovering last year from back-to-back major surgeries, including a total hip replacement. There were also over 1000 emails, tons of pics & vids and much more. The A is definitely over & there is a handwritten NC in place, both of which are 100% verified. Eeee God, I gotta stop now cause I'm about to throw the f*ucking computer out the window thinking about this sh!t! Anyway, now you know the whole story, well almost. Enough anyway to get an idea of where I'm at in this thing.
It's funny that you mentioned "What Every WS Needs To Know" as a turning point for you and H. That has been my bible thus far, well that and "Not Just Friends". I gave them both to WW early on and she's just started reading them again. It has helped but as I said, she still takes too many days off, blame shifts & is a master at justification.
Ah sh!t, this is way too long already. Thanks for listening. It's good to just let it out again sometimes.
[This message edited by ImNotToBlame1241 at 6:28 AM, March 25th (Sunday)]
So- I have to encourage you to get your WS involved in SI if at all possible. My BS did this and it turned us around. I had been seeing an IC who was telling me things like "He has not recommitted after an entire month- that is abusive to you!!!" I had read nothing. I really was NOT getting it. I started reading this and it was like the scales fell off my eyes. Now my goal in life is show my remorse in every action word and deed (while working on myself and everything else )
As to each other's posts- I try to stay out of "his" forum. I usually read on my iPad when I have run across his posts it is usually because the window is so big I am half way through before I realize....its him. Usually it is nothing he has or would not say to me. Honestly what cuts me is the comments and speculation the other BS have on me. One in particular always attributs a particular nasty motivation to everything I do. At first i would break down crying- she doesn't know me- why would she say such things??? All WS may have committed the same offense- but we are all different people with different experiences bringing us to this place. now I try to let it go. She is a human who has experienced a terrible betrayal. She is protecting MY BS from something i did not. All in all- I don't cyber stalk his posts. I also don't forbid him from reading mine. I don't LIKE it- but I am not going to deny him access to anything. I keep no more secrets. If he reads them we don't discuss it. But I think it must help more than it would hurt.
"taking a day off"- I guess I am not sure what that means. I am always ready to address anything about the A, our relationship, anything I can do- BH usually does not want to talk or does not know what to say. Of course- I am pretty new to this- so maybe in time i will be guilty of this as well. i can see it would be wearing to always be the one to bring it up! Would it be better to schedule a time? Or is the point that you want them to make the effort?
Is there anything else specific I can answer- or babble on about in an effort to answer?
Thanks for the post. I have to say I think it's admirable that you're taking time to offer assistance being you're only a little more than 3 months out.
Or is the point that you want them to make the effort?
Yes! That's it exactly. IMO, effort = actions. actions = getting it. getting it = healing. healing = true R. Hope that equation makes sense.
From the previous page...
Isn't there something positive about your WH telling you what he did? Do you like knowing what kind of life you are living? I'm not being snarky, but I've only seen a couple of BS's who would rather have never known about the A. I don't understand it.
His excuse regarding knowing the A would end when he got his wife back is a pile of shit meant to place some of the blame on you for being pregnant.
I would bet that if/when the OW becomes a BW, she will have a much different attitude about her part in the A and how it still hurts you so much years later. However, I know there are BW's who have posted in NB about getting involved with a new guy and having no idea that he was M, in effect making the BW an OW without their knowledge. Your WH sounds like a pro in the lying department.
You don't have to forgive your WH if you don't want to. It's your choice. Your description of where he is at now is not really showing him as a remorseful spouse. He may be working that direction, but I don't get the sense that he is there yet. And for you, it may take upwards of 5 years for you to process all of this. It's okay. You need as much time as you need, and hopefully your WH will understand that and be there with you through all of this.
Yes, I thought about giving up, but I knew that was a cop-out. If I gave up, I knew that my problems would just follow me wherever I would have ended up. I don't think I have a life sentence. The M is changed, that's for certain. Giving up now, as a WH, would mean that I wasn't being honest with myself or with my BW. It would mean that I was unwilling to really accept that I was responsible for the choices I made.
I don't want to R with my WH because something tells me that he still thinks that OW was just a nice girl who he took advantage of. It's a long story, but my WH started the affair when our DS was 7 months old. He hired her the month before the A stared. I have no doubt that he un/consciously picked her with the idea of becoming an A partner. I hold him 100% responsible for the A. What I hate about the OW is that she met me and my DS before the A began, so it wasn't like she didn't know we existed.
I really hate the OW for that. I don't care what lies my WH said to her about me, it kills me every time that she went ahead and did it anyway knowing I was a real person with a baby. I still think my WH set up the whole thing, and maybe that's why he said that she is innocent. Well, to me saying she's innocent means that he still thinks she's this nice innocent girl (she was 27 during the A) who was taken advantage of. So really she's just a victim. And that really burns me because to me that implies that he still thinks she's wonderful, its just that he's married and has a kid, so he can't be with her. To top it off, WH refuses to talk about the A,or go to MC, or IC because, "It just makes you (W2D76) mad". It's been 1 1/2 years since D Day and I really want this to end.
After that long ramble, my question is: Should I let my concern over how WH remembers OW as an innocent victim go? I really think that its destructive and he's rugsweeping and I think the way he's been avoiding talking about the A since D Day is grounds alone for D. Sadly, he has become more attentive to helping out around the house, but I still feel there is this distance between us that has been there since the beginning of the A.
Thank you to all WS who answer.
How did you as a WS get past caring about the AP's being hurt? My H and I have had 2 conversations recently and he seems to be really bothered by the destruction that he caused, not just to me and our family, but to the OW. Apparently, he led her to believe that he REALLY loved her and that they had a future.
A big part of me recognizes that this is who my H is. This is the man I fell in love with 16 years ago, who has a conscience and cannot cause harm without feeling bad about it. I get that.
But OW knew he was married. Not at the beginning, but from the time I discovered the EA and kicked him out. She knew I was devastated. She knew we had 2 children, one of whom was suffering immensely.
I am okay with him expressing these feelings, but don't want to be stuck here. How did you, and how long did it take to get past caring about the damage to the OW?

Grief does not change you, Hazel. It reveals you.
I will send you duplicate private messages, but publicly:
I don't necessarily think it is imperative for us as waywards to think or talk about our AP's like they are horrible people and/or not feel bad about the pain and hurt we caused their family. I TOTALLY understand the WS need to do that, to hate us, etc...but for us to do that, in my opinion is really blameshifting to a degree. Sure, we could sit there and rip them apart with you, agree with you and everything you say, and I'm sure that would make you feel better. But it is really how we feel? Maybe not.
That being said, WhatToDo..it sounds like your husband's not wanting to discuss the affair with you is a bigger part of the missing picture. Just being a more loving/caring partner isn't enough.
HFSSC...was your husband's AP married? I am assuming he is upset at the destruction to her family that he caused, but maybe that is incorrect? Because if she was just a single person, what sort of destruction did he create to her when she knew what she was doing?
That's the destruction he sees. She gambled on him and lost everything. Sucks to be her, in my opinion. But I can't feel that for him.
It just is so hard for me to see. In August, he was suicidal. He told me over and over that he was sick of her and wanted to end it for months but couldn't because he was afraid she would kill herself or go bunny boiler on us. He saw the destruction that she caused to both of us as well as our sweet children. I just do not get it, and probably never will.
Thanks for your input. I really appreciate it.
It took a long time to see the OW in something other than the light that was on her during the A. My BW thoughts and ideas about what OW was went against what I believed at that time. As the truth came out, as work began on R, the thoughts and ideas my BW expressed about who OW really was made more sense to me. But then, eventually, it seemed to not matter so much anymore.
Your bigger issue is that you don't have the whole truth yet. Until you have that, it doesn't really matter what your WH thinks of the OW. You wrote your situation the way you did because that is what your gut is telling you.
Is your WH that devious that he would have hired the OW with the intent of having an A?
Personally, I think that as long as your WH isn't willing to talk about the A, it doesn't matter what he thinks of the OW. How long are you going to let this continue? Filing for D would probably make an impact. It might finally impress upon him the importance of talking about his A. It might also cause him to go the other way. You can't really know until it happens. But, making the decision to D is making the decision to take care of yourself, and that is the most important step.
The fog - From the time the EA ended, to the time real R began was about 2 years. Even then I was foggy, but had made the decision to actively work on R instead of making a half-assed effort.
Multiple A's - usually this seems to be an issue of the WS not doing the work. This may be for a variety of reasons, whether they are a serial cheater or just scared to admit they are damaged and broken. In my case, a lot of the past behaviors were a result of not recognizing there was anything wrong in the first place. So patterns developed and boundaries went by the way-side which made each subsequent "relationship" a bit more intense. I have my reasons for using "relationship" in this case, but it isn't relevant to answering your questions.
Continuing A behavior - Not sure how to say this...A's can feel really good. I'm sure you've seen reference to the drug-like effect A's have on many WS. It is very difficult to let go of that. It is very difficult to admit there is a problem.
Each WS is a bit unique. We each have our own problems. And it sounds like your WH has some big problems if he is still seeking A's. That is not R. That is not even working toward beginning R. There isn't much you can do to change that about him. The WS needs to be ready to face the issues. The WS needs to be willing to let their guard down just a bit to even realize there is an issue to deal with. Because of that, the only option left to the BS is to take care of themselves. That's what my BW did. She made that decision, for herself. It snapped me out of my fog, but I've seen it go the other way too.
Hi. Here is my two cents, which may be all it is worth
With all the reading I have done, I see love not only as a feeling but as a choice. I always loved my BH, but for reasons I am still exploring (FOO, insecurity, loneliness, rejection) I chose to respond not by commication and working on my M with my BH, but by responding to online flirting from the OM.
The "fog"- I hate this term. I guess it depends on how long/ how much feeling the WS has developed for the AP. Keep in mind there is also a very selfish number one reason why a WS stays in communication (IMHO) - when we are dealing with our BS we have to face the pain/shame/reality/devastation of what we have done. We have to answer painful questions and be honest. When we go back to call the AP, we are relieved of guilt and excused- told how wonderful we are. It's all the BS's fault according to the AP. welcome back to comfortable fantasy land!
I don't know if there is an average time. I knew immediately when confronted I wanted to stay with BH, but broke NC for a month! Then it took me another month and finding SI to really see the pain I caused the man I love.
I am still working through the why of my shameful behavior, but I know nothing NOTHING could ever be worth causing or going through this again. I don't know how a WS who gets to this stage of remorse could ever do anything like the on line sites again. Maybe he was never remorseful? Maybe he was unable to really face what motivated him to need to do that in the first place?
I am sorry for your pain and that you are headed for D. I may end up there myself, but it will be my own fault. Keep this in mind. Unless your WH addresses why he has these needs and why he cant be satisfied with what sounds like a good M, none of those other women are going to satisfy him either.
It is not a lack of love for you, but something he is lacking in himself. Seriously. I would have sworn that was psychobabble eight months ago and I was a poor neglected wife. I have found out sooooo much more.
Best wishes to you
I was good at comparmentalizing (common but sounds unbelievable if you have not been there).
Could you give me some ideas of what your IC did that helped you? Did they have specific tasks or exercises for you to complete?
WH seems comfortable talking with IC, but that seems to be all that happens. He sometimes feels he understand things a bit better when he is forced to try to talk about them, but IC never seems to give any feedback or ask anything of him. H will say he told IC about something that happened, or something from childhood, and then I ask, What did IC say about that, and H answers, Nothing - he just listened.
I feel he needs more of a coach or guide on how to address some of his issues. Are there IC who do that? What did you find valuable with the experience?
Thanks for anything you can share!

Electricity in Jamaica is 110 Volts, alternating at 50 cycles with some wide spread 220 volt systems.
Should you try to use an inductive appliance rated for 220 volts on a 110 volt circuit the appliance will not last very long.
Adapters can be used to increase the voltage from 110 t0 220 for for these appliances but if the appliance has a high current draw the adapter will be expensive.

The young trees would normally have been planted more than a month ago.
"That's not too good for future harvesting ... it cuts back on growing time," said Greg Whiting, nursery manager for SD Walker. "The rain has been a hindrance."
Alabama is more than 11 inches above its normal rainfall amount for this time of year, which has slowed farming in the state in recent months, agriculture experts say. According to recent statistics from the U.S. Department of Agriculture's Alabama field office, farming for much of state has improved, but several Calhoun County farmers are still struggling to recover.
"We've had to re-plant most of our cotton ... about two thirds of it," said Keith Bryant, an Alexandria farmer. "We got it planted and the rain just flooded everything out."
The figures, released last week, show that the amount of crops planted in the state this year is near what was planted the same period last year and are in mostly good condition. For instance, 98 percent of the state's corn was planted during the week of June 9 — slightly less than the 100 percent planted during the same time last year. Also, about 68 percent of the state's corn crop was rated as being in good condition during the week of June 9. Only 58 percent of the state's corn crop was rated in good condition during the same week last year.
The state's corn crop is a far cry from what it was in April, when rainfall exceeded normal levels. The data shows 70 percent of the state's corn was planted the week of April 28 — far less than the 92 percent of corn planted during the same time last year.
Meanwhile, 98 percent of the state's cotton was planted during the week of June 9, a small decrease from the 100 percent planted during the same period last year. About 63 percent of the state's cotton crop was rated as being in good condition during the week of June 9. The state's cotton crop had a 68 percent good rating during the same week last year.
Similar to corn, 15 percent of the state's cotton was planted the week of April 28, a decrease from the 23 percent planted the same time last year.
"It looks like things are getting back to where they were before the rains," said Bill Weaver, director of the Alabama field office for the Department of Agriculture's National Agricultural Statistics Service. "And the crops really look good, those that are in the ground."
Weaver said Alabama farmers will continue to do better this year as temperatures rise.
Bryant said some good hot weather is coming up that should help, and he still has strong hopes that his cotton crops will still produce strong yields this year.
"We just hope we don't have an early frost on this cotton," Bryant said.
Whiting said the rain has hurt his company's future harvests, but has actually helped the harvest this year. SD Walker is a wholesale grower of trees for landscapers.
"The rain has been a two-sided coin ... it has allowed us to extend our digging season and not run irrigation," Whiting said. "But one of the biggest struggles we've had is we can't get in the field and plant."
Max Runge, extension economist at Auburn University, said the heavy rains have had varying results on farming in the state.
"It's mixed depending on where you are — in localized areas there has been too much rain," Runge said. "Some are behind on planting corn and cotton has to catch up."
However, Alabama farmers should still see some decent yields this year, barring any major weather anomalies, Runge said.
"Many farmers are very optimistic that this will be a pretty good year," Runge said. "Most producers would rather have too much rain than not enough."
Carol Kemp, owner of Rusty Rock Greenhouses in White Plains, said the extra rain and overcast weather has hurt her plant production this year.
"The rain is really impacting our business," Kemp said. "It put spring a little further behind."

The Kitty Stone Elementary School in Jacksonville is honoring veterans with a program at 2 p.m. Students will talk about the significance of Veterans Day, the Jacksonville State University ROTC program will present the colors, and the Kitty Stone Singers will sing "The Star-Spangled Banner."
The presentation will also honor local former Marine and Afghanistan War veteran Ben Tomlinson.
All are welcome to attend this event, which will take place in the elementary school courtyard.
The annual Veterans Day Parade in Anniston will begin at 2 p.m. The parade steps off at 15th and Noble Street and will feature two local veterans as co-grand marshals: World War II veteran Frank M. Turner Sr. and Tomlinson were selected to lead the parade by the Calhoun County Veterans Organization. The parade will honor veterans from all wars and military branches.
The Vietnam Veterans America and Disabled Veterans of America will host a ceremony at Centennial Memorial Park in Anniston at 11 a.m. The ceremony will feature a twenty-one gun salute and a memorial for fallen comrades. Singer Steve Chappell will be on hand to sing patriotic songs.
Ken Rollins, who organized the ceremony, explained why it needs to happen on Sunday, even if that means being absent from church.
"We celebrate Veterans Day at 11 o'clock on the eleventh day of the eleventh month to remember Armistice Day," he said. "We'll be honoring God and country that day and I feel that God will forgive us for missing church."
Golden Corral in Oxford will host a free dinner to thank veterans between 4 p.m. and 9 p.m. The Disabled American Veterans is hosting this event and organizers expect more than 4,000 people to attend. All veterans are welcome for a free meal and donations will be accepted to support the local DAV chapters.
Charles Fisher, the Alabama Department Commander, describes the evening as "very rewarding, nothing better than to see a vet smile."
NHC Place in Anniston will unveil its new room of veterans memorabilia at 2 p.m. Through donations from veterans' families and outposts, the assisted living center has turned an unused library room into an archive of information about past wars. Veterans who live there will cut the ribbon to open the room to the public.
Visitors will have the opportunity to read stories from veterans, watch videos, and inspect World War II artifacts, from planes to helmets to tank binoculars.
Derrick Scott, an administrator at the facility, decided to create the room when he realized the veterans living there would have daily conversations about World War II and their memories of Fort McClellan.
"It gives our veterans a sense of pride and their stories won't get lost," Scott said.
Scott hopes many visitors will be local school groups and he's already been contacted by several history teachers about potential field trips.
The archive will be a permanent part of NHC Place and there's already been talk of an expansion with the generous amount of artifacts people have donated.

Hernandez revels in comeback win
Manchester United goal hero Javier Hernandez was relieved after his double helped his side come from 2-0 down to beat Braga 3-2 in the Champions League.
United trailed 2-0 inside 20 minutes but Hernandez pulled a goal back five minutes later and grabbed a second-half winner after defender Jonny Evans had equalised.
Asked for his thoughts after another dismal start - the eighth time this season United have fallen behind, Hernandez joked: "I was thinking 'oh, we just need to score three more goals and then we get the three points'!
"We started a little bit badly but thankfully we scored three and we will look forward to the next game."
He added on ITV1: "I've learnt a lot here and when I get the chance I need to do my best."
Hernandez had another goal disallowed for an offside against Shinji Kagawa in the build-up.
And he said: "It wasn't offside but it's not important, all that matters is the three points."
Despite United having to again come from behind, manager Sir Alex Ferguson defended his decision to field a lightweight-looking defence including England midfielder Michael Carrick.
Rio Ferdinand was left on the bench but Ferguson told ITV1: "I think we did the right thing. It wasn't Michael Carrick's fault, the first goal, he did his job well.
Watch: Hernandez inspires Man United comeback... More Videos
"I think you've got to look at the big picture - Rio, his age, with a big game against Chelsea coming up, Chelsea (in the Carling Cup) on Wednesday then Arsenal.
"We've got Vida (Nemanja Vidic) out, (Phil) Jones and (Chris) Smalling not available - Carrick's not the best but he does his job well."
Ferguson added: "It's been the story of our season at home, starting badly and conceding goals, but we've rescued games.
"It's the front players who are doing that for us, some of our football tonight [Tuesday] was terrific, but it is a worry that we're losing those goals."
He admitted Hernandez's headed double had given him a tough decision to make on the nature of his frontline in the future.
"He trains magnificently, he's improving all the time and he's got me thinking," he said.
"With him, (Robin) Van Persie, (Wayne) Rooney, (Danny) Welbeck... I don't know what you do with them, to be honest."

A University Park man was assaulted inside his own home after he unwittingly interrupted a burglary-in-progress earlier today, according to University Park police.
The incident began around 12:40 p.m. when a homeowner living in the 4200 block of Tuckerman Street returned home after the house had been vacant for only an hour. Once inside, the man locked his front door and shortly afterwards encountered an intruder inside his home.
The suspect, described by police as a 20-to-25-year-old black male with short dreadlocks, standing about 5 feet 10 inches tall and weighing about 145 pounds and dressed in all black clothing, tried to bolt through the front door. Finding the front door locked, he turned and struck the victim in the face several times before running out of the house through a basement door.
Officers from the University Park Police Department and the Prince George's County Police Department responded to the scene shortly after the victim called 911. Police searched the area for the suspect, but were unable to find him.
An investigation revealed that the basement door had been forced open and that cash and jewelry had been stolen from the home.
According to UPPD Chief Michael Wynnyk, the incident is classified as a residential robbery, as opposed to a burglary.
"It started out as a burglary, but since the person was confronted, it turns into a robbery when the victim is assaulted and his property is taken," said Wynnyk in an interview. "It sort of morphed from a burglary, to an interrupted burglary in progress, to a robbery."

Democratic Cook County Board President Toni Preckwinkle has her reasons for not endorsing Lance Tyson's bid for state representative.
For a year and a half — from December 2006 until May 2008 — Tyson, a lifelong Democrat, served as chief of staff for former Cook County Board President Todd Stroger, who was so generally reviled that when he ran for re-election at the end of his first term in 2010, he finished last in the four-candidate primary that Preckwinkle won.
"I've spent the last two years of my life trying to clean up the messes of my predecessor and his minions," Preckwinkle told me earlier this week. "As Todd Stroger's chief of staff, (Tyson) was his agent and so shares the responsibility for how badly things were run. He can't dissociate himself from the ineptitude and bad acts of the person he worked with."
» The latest on traffic, delays and road construction delivered to your mobile phone. Click to sign up to receive text alerts!
But two things:
First, Tyson does try to dissociate himself somewhat from Stroger, who all but inherited the seat from his father, John. Tyson told me he tried to keep Stroger focused on battling the tough financial challenges the county faced, and pointed out that he gave up in frustration less than halfway through Stroger's term.
Second, whatever Todd-stink still lingers on Tyson is mild compared to the foul cloud in the West Side legislative district that envelops his opponent, Derrick Smith.
Smith, who formerly held the seat, is facing trial in federal court on charges he took a $7,000 bribe in a sting operation. In August, based on that allegation, his colleagues in the Illinois House voted 100-6 to expel him.
But by that time he had already won the Democratic primary, so he'll be on the November ballot attempting to win his old seat back for a two-year term.
And if Smith prevails — Tyson is his only opponent and a recent We Ask America poll in the district showed Smith nearly 40 percentage points in front — the House will be unable to oust him again because Article IV of the Illinois Constitution decrees that "a member may be expelled only once for the same offense."
A victorious Smith would hold the seat until and unless he's convicted of bribery, at which point his expulsion would be automatic. But his trial isn't even scheduled yet, so there's no telling when there will be a verdict.
It was a national story in March when Smith won the primary — with party backing! — one week after his arrest.
But the Democrats who rallied around him were simply trying to make the best of a bad situation, not wanting to yield the seat to the Republican-in-disguise who was facing Smith in the primary, and figuring leadership could muscle Smith out for the general election.
When Smith wouldn't budge, a group of Democratic Party officials got together and backed Tyson for a third-party challenge.
It will be a national scandal if Smith wins in November.
This will be the summary: Illinois Democrats were so blase about corruption that they didn't work hard to prevent the election of a candidate facing felony corruption charges.
And this will be the background: Though Democratic Gov. Pat Quinn and Democratic Secretary of State Jesse White endorsed Tyson along with a raft of lesser officeholders, a number of key party members remained on the sidelines.
Preckwinkle was still nursing a political grudge and so stayed out of it (though she did say she'd vote for Tyson if she lived in the district).
Michael Madigan, speaker of the Illinois House and chairman of the state Democratic Party, declined to get involved, saying through a spokesman that "one way or another, the voters will send a Democrat to Springfield." His daughter, Attorney General Lisa Madigan, did not take a position.
U.S. Rep. Danny Davis, in whose district this drama is playing out, remained neutral.
Voters were left to ask, does the Illinois Democratic Party stand for anything other than self-perpetuation?
Did these bystanders and hand-wringers have so little perspective that they enabled the writing of another disgraceful chapter in our state's political history?
Less than six weeks remain to change that story.

We are using our headbands for Relay for Life. our whole team will be wearing them.. we added some "bling" to the front of the battery pack and on the sides for the girls. as we all know most girls like bling. I have had several people ask to buy them. so we upped the price a little. great fund raiser idea.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

About Me Value Oriented
This was FABULOUS! I got it in purple and wore it for an outer-space party, and it was the hit of the party! Not every tube has a light in it, but there were plenty of (flashing) lights, and they lasted for at least 5 hours so far. (I did turn them off to eat dinner, as they were a little distracting while eating.) And you can arrange the tubes so that they are more spread out, without the gap at the top like in most of the pictures. My kids are fighting for rights to wear it for Halloween. Think I'll wear it myself....
Great product

Headbands fit well for teen/adult sizes. Not too heavy and stayed in place even while dancing. Light up looks great on stage. Easy on/off switch.
Awesome Product!
By mad4plaidn09
from Manvel, Tx
I am a team captain for a Relay For Life team, and bought this for a team member to wear during the night. She liked it so much, she bought it from me to give to her grandaughter. I also bought the red, white, and blue one. The only issue I have is one of the mesh tubes fell off right when I took it out of the package. These are great to buy and flip to make a profit.
Big Hit at the Dance Party

Headband is a bit heavy with the battery pack, but these are funky and bright. Fun Fun Fun for nighttime event.

My husband and I are off to Darwin at end of May for a week and would like any info on good eateries around the place. This is the first time I have been to Darwin. We will be staying in Mitchell Street, but are happy to travel if need be.
Winifred14 wrote:For endless food variety and people watching, try the Mindil Beach Sunset markets on Thursday evening, or Parap market on Saturday morning. For THE best laksa, Rendezvous cafe in the Star Village arcade off Smith St Mall. It's a pokey little hidden-away place, but they've spoilt me for laksa - haven't found one to compare since I left Darwin. Although I hear you can also get a good one at Parap Market. The original Noodle House in Knuckey St is good. There's a new up-market version in Mitchell st, but I'd stick with the old one. And if you want seriously good modern Asian (Thai/Indian/Nonya), Hanuman is the place, but you'll have to book. Bit of an Asian theme happening here, but that's Darwin. Fish & chips on the wharf used to be popular. I've been gone a while, guess it still is. Hopefully some current Darwin residents can point out some of their secrets for you if they haven't all feld or the Wet

Brooklyn Bridge Rotary Club presented a $1,000 check to the Mercy Home for Children at its Feb. 21 meeting.
Mercy's Visitation Residence for the developmentally disabled suffered severe damage in Hurricane Sandy. Residents of the Red Hook facility had to be temporarily relocated to Mercy's building in Fort Greene, which was hastily reconverted for residential use.
Sr. Crumlish described Mercy's mission. It began 151 years ago when five young boys, whose home had been destroyed by fire, knocked on the door of the Convent of Mercy on Willoughby Avenue in Fort Greene looking for help, she said.
Thirty-six years ago, the sisters opened Visitation in Red Hook as a group home for disabled youngsters. "We were looking for their abilities, not their disabilities," she said.
After Sandy, as Brooklyn Bridge Rotary looked to help impacted groups and individuals in its community, Mercy's plight came to the attention of Rotarian Sandra Dowling. Specifically, the sisters needed new washing machines, and the club committed to buying one.
Instead, when Sr. Crumlish arrived at the Feb. 28 meeting, she was surprised with the $1,000 check — an amount that covered the cost of the new washington machine and more.
"That's a tremendous gift," Sister Sister Kay Crumlish, Mercy's executive director, told the club.

Cary >Arts & Entertainment > Regal Crossroads Stadium 20
501 Caitboo Avenue, Cary, NC | Directions 2751135.758342 -78.735203
I have always used this theater due to its location. It is so run down and needs a major update. It smells terrible, carpet and seats are disgusting. Please update Crossroads 20!
RIP OFF – POP CORN way over $6!!!!!!! A soda over $5! What a rip off, they fleece everyone, stay away...
Smells like urine!! – I used to think that Crossroads 20 was one of the best theaters in the area. My last two experiences have changed my opinion. The theaters reek of urine! The first of my recent trips, it was only entry hallway into the theater that smelled badly. The second trip, the entire theater smelled like a dirty hampster cage. I don't think that I will ever go back to that theater!
Bad Management. – It's a great movie theatre; Really nice and all, I go there all the time. But whenever I go there the employees seem to be rude or not doing their jobs correctly. Last night someone dropped us off and my friend had left her ID in the car. All of the other people had theirs. They let us pay for our tickets and right before we walked into the actual theatre the manager stops us and asks for ID.
After talking to the manager I asked; "So why don't your employees do their jobs and card people when they pay for the tickets?"
She raised her voice and said "If you're going to attack me you can get out right now!"
After I told her that wasn't fair she got someone to tell us to leave.
So we got kicked out because I asked a question?
I'm definitely going to start going to BeaverCreek.
Crossroads 20's salt is extracted from caviar. – It's true!!! They are charging for salt. How stupid is that? Soon enough you will be paying a fuel surcharge for the butter.
TERRIBLE! Was put off by their craptastic money grubbing new policy that now charges $1.5 if you want salt. – Tickets for 2 ~ 18-19$
Popcorn and 2 sodas ~ 15-18$
Now on top of this they now no longer offer the free service of....SALT!!!!
Yes that's right, salt now costs $1.5 here at crossroads 20.
What's next "Oh you'd like a straw? $1...hmm? Oh you probably want some napkins too, that costs..."
What a crock, on top of this the movie was slightly out of focus and projected too low, usually I would just go and say something, but I was already ticked off and didn't want to lose my temper. (we went to see the Hulk, haha)
Good atmosphere, many screens to choose from. Concession stand offers wide variety. Ambiance and setting within each theater is appropriate. Sound system is nice.
Nice theatre in a nice area. Traffic is bad, due to construction in the area, but lots of shopping and food in the area.
best stadium seating i've found – this theater has the best seating i've found in the triangle..i've had no problems with the visuals or sound..so i recommend ..it's been clean and people have benn nice and responsive evry time i've been here..the lines can be long for feature films, but i expected it for a theater offering this many new release films..i also thought the prices were comparable to other nice theatres in the area..yes i think it's too expensive, but no i didn't think their prices were any higher than others in the area
